How To Remove Fleas

Introduction

Fleas are parasites that feed on the blood of dogs and cats. They are tiny in size, but if left unattended they can cause major health problems for your pet. Flea bites can cause your pet to scratch excessively which results in open sores, flea allergy dermatitis, tapeworms, hair loss and anemia. If these pests find their way into your home you will likely have an infestation on your hands as a female flea lays over 50 eggs each day after feeding on blood. Luckily there are steps you can take to get rid of the fleas that have made themselves at home.

Wash your pet’s bedding in hot water.

  • Wash your pet’s bedding in hot water.
  • Wash your pet’s bedding in hot water at least once a week.
  • Wash your pet’s bedding in hot water at least once a month.
  • Wash your pet’s bedding in hot water at least once a year.

Bathe your pet in warm water with flea shampoo.

Use flea shampoo. Using a flea comb, work the shampoo through your pet’s hair and let it sit for 10 minutes before rinsing it off. Repeat if necessary.

Use a professional pest control company.

The safest option for treating fleas is to hire a professional pest control company. These companies use chemical treatments that are safe for humans and pets, including dogs and cats. They can also treat your home, yard, and any other location where fleas may be.

Professional pest control companies can also provide advice on how to prevent fleas from returning in the future. For example, they may recommend that you remove any dead or dirty bedding from your home so that fleas will have no place to lay their eggs.

Make a flea trap to kill adult fleas that have jumped on your pet.

If you’re looking for a way to get rid of adult fleas in your home and yard, try making a flea trap with an old plastic bottle.

  • Fill the bottle with water and add dishwashing liquid or white vinegar.
  • Cut off the top of the plastic bottle, leaving enough room so that when you place it over your pet’s bedding it can trap any adult fleas on its surface (and some larvae beneath).
  • Place your homemade flea trap near where your dog sleeps overnight (or for several days) and remove in the morning when ready; then dispose of carefully so as not to harm pets or children! Repeat if necessary until all stages are gone from your pet’s environment

Clean the floor and vacuum furniture, carpet, curtains and anywhere else fleas may be hiding.

Vacuum all carpet, upholstery and curtains. Vacuuming is one of the best ways to get rid of fleas in your home. Make sure you use a vacuum with a HEPA filter. The official name for the kind of vacuum that has a HEPA filter is an “industrial” or “commercial” vacuum cleaner (you can find them at rental stores). If you don’t have access to one of these machines, try using your home’s upholstery attachment instead—though it won’t be as effective at getting rid of fleas as an industrial model would be.

Use a small brush attachment on furniture and baseboards: Flea eggs are often found near cracks in floors or walls where pets like to lay down; if you have large furniture pieces like sofas or beds, use small brushes to get into those crevices where adult fleas often hide out during daylight hours (you could also use sticky tape if there’s no other way).

Fleas can be removed by following some basic steps to kill them and deter them from returning

  • Wash your pet’s bedding in hot water.
  • Bathe your pet in warm water with flea shampoo.
  • Hire a professional pest control company to treat your home or yard if the problem cannot be solved by treating the animal alone.

Conclusion

Fleas can be a nuisance, but they are very easy to remove. Fleas will not go away on their own; however, you can use the steps above to get rid of them yourself or by hiring a professional company.
